Attempted to upgrade my software, using 'sudo apt-get update' and then 'sudo
apt-get upgrade'

No upgrade was done, and the following message was printed:

Reading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
Reading state information...
Calculating upgrade...
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 gnupg : Depends: gpg (>= 2.2.43-7)
         Depends: gpg-agent (>= 2.2.43-7) but 2.2.40-3 is to be installed
 gpg : Depends: gpgconf (= 2.2.40-3) but 2.2.43-7 is to be installed
       Recommends: gnupg (= 2.2.40-3) but 2.2.43-7 is to be installed
 gpg-agent : Depends: gpgconf (= 2.2.40-3) but 2.2.43-7 is to be installed
             Recommends: gnupg (= 2.2.40-3) but 2.2.43-7 is to be installed
 gpg-wks-client : Depends: gpg (= 2.2.43-7)
                  Depends: gpg-agent (= 2.2.43-7) but 2.2.40-3 is to be
installed
E: Broken packages

'apt-cache policy gpg gnupg gpg-agent gpgconf gpg-wks-client'
listed each pkg as version 2.2.40-3, with candidate 2.2.43-7

I finally was successful in doing an apt-get upgrade, by
first doing:
sudo apt-get install gpg gnupg gpg-agent gpgconf gpg-wks-client
and then:
sudo apt-get upgrade

but shouldn't apt-get upgrade have been able to satisfy the dependencies
all by itself?
